Principal's Update

Dear Colleagues,

This week will be a busy week with the P5 boys going for their Outdoor Adventure Camp and our P6 boys off for their PSLE. In the following week, we will be celebrating Children's Day with a carnival run by parent volunteers. Lessons will be suspended for that day and do look out for the details below.

As we work through this busy Term 4, I would like to cast our minds back to our 7 Habits workshop over the June holidays. For this week I thought it would be timely in our busyness to remind ourselves of Habits 1, and 2 which we covered:

Habit 1: Be Proactive - The Habit of Personal Responsibility,

  • Take responsibility for your choices, regardless of circumstance.

  • Responding instead of Reacting

  • Using our 4 unique human gifts: Self-Awareness, Imagination, Conscience, Independent Will

  • Focusing on our Circle of Influence

  • Changing our paradigms by changing what and how we See.

  • Become a Transition Person

Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind - The Habit of Personal Vision

  • Give your efforts direction by articulating your vision for your life.

  • Keeping our purpose and outcomes in mind when making decisions

  • Thinking through and creating the outcome in your mind before creating in reality

  • Being clear about the fundamental purpose of our life

For this week, let us reflect on how much of Habits 1 and 2 have we been practising? Did we find ourselves in situations where we could practise these 2 habits? Was it difficult? If not yet, take heart and keep perservering and start practising Habits 1 and 2.

"Lead your life or someone else will."

—Stephen R. Covey
